My Easter Table!!

Yesterday was Easter, and we had a wonderful family day. We all sat around the table and ate as my three boys told stories reminiscing about days gone by. We laughed so hard my head hurt!!

Seeing the Great grandparents, Grandparents, Parents and children all sitting together at the table, eating, laughing and joking gives me such joy.

Before we ate we all stood around the table as my Hubby said the prayer and thanking God for sending his son to be our Saviour. What a blessed family I have and I am so thankful for that.

My DIL’s were looking beautiful in their pretty Easter outfits and it was so fun to hear them talking about the best schools for their children and extra curricular activities. All the subjects I remember talking about when I was their age. Of course we girls ended up talking about skin care and make-up !!!

Watching the Grandkids hunt for eggs in the backyard was the highlight of the day.

I promised pictures of my completed Easter table and I ran out of time to have them posted before today. I had so much fun putting this table together. In fact this is my all time favorite Easter table to date.

My oldest son said “the table looks like lemonade.”

My Mom made the napkin belts for me. I really love the way they turned out, and I can use them from year to year!

I used some beautiful vintage napkins that a dear friend gave me as a gift.

Irish moss in egg cups with yellow jelly belly's!

I love the daisy dome!!!

I hope all of you had a wonderful family day and a Blessed Easter.

I am joining Tablescape Thursday today at Between Naps On The Porch.Thank you to our gracious hostes Susan!!

BREATHTAKING! GORGEOUS! INSPIRATIONAL! IT'S BEAUTIFUL!!! Great idea on the napkin rings! I think I, with my challenged decorating abilities, could make those! Thanks for sharing your talents and inspiring us to make every day special.

I kept thinking happy daisies last week when you gave a sneak peek ;) the napkin belts are my favorite ! I see the ric rac didn't make the cut ,ha. I am thinking your mom should open an easy shop "napkin belts" Lol! I am totally dating myself but that name won't work, conjures up the monthly visit, Lol!

Kathysue, your son is right! Lemonade is the perfect descpription for the table. Reasons for that, lemonade is my favorite drink and this is my favorite Easter table! love the little jelly Belly's! they look just like little eggs:)

Kathysue your table (and the WHOLE room for that matter) looks incredible!! Love it, the colors, the textures, everything works so well together! I am so happy to hear also that you had a wonderful time with family, cause that's what it is all about :) He is Risen!Nancy xo

Sounds like you had a lovely family Easter celebration! Your table looks beautiful - I'd already admired the flowers - and the napkin belts (love that term) are adorable. I'm sure a good time was had by all!

Kathysue, your table is just lovely my friend. The pictures are just beautiful.Isn't it wonderful when everyone is together for holidays. I enjoyed Easter so much, like you said, you look around the table at these wonderful people and it brings such peace.

Thank you for your nice comments on my spring birdhouse tablescape! I appreciate your visit! Yellow and green is one of my favorite color combos. Your tablescape is so pretty and cheery! I love the table runner and fresh flowers. Have a great night, Kristen
